Things are heating up!

 And the fire is burning nicely, too. Louise and John are looking quite cuddly by the fire.

The flames were made with hot glue then painted with glass paint. I made the flames on a sheet of aluminum foil. The glue would not peel off the foil so I had to cut them out. They still look good, though.

Did you make the entire fireplace? So cute!

What a creative and convincing way to heat up that fireplace! It looks perfect!

I did, Brandy. I carved out a chunk of balsa, carved in the brick and added the bits of trim.

Thanks!I don't remember where I first saw the hot glue idea but it works quite well.
